"Get ready for hospital closures,
delays in access to health care and waits for ambulances so long that
patient safety may be at risk."

- Stolen directly from one of the many leaky Liberal
memos.

Back in the day when Mountain Burger
could feed an insatiable grease craving
24 hours a day; I used to go to the library on Saturdays and sign up for
Internet time. There I would directly log on to the brilliantly written
newspaper spoof www.theonion.com

"I'm Like a Chocoholic, but for booze", "World
Trade Center hijackers surprised to find themselves in hell". It's
headlines like these with the content to match that makes The Onion such
a great read. As fabulous and brilliant as it is, at the end of the day
it is an American publication and Canadian issues simply don't come up.
Sure there are countless other media/humor sites out there but few cut
as deeply and as well as The Onion... Until now.

The mighty Sun/Province/Global machine has attempted
to shut it down several times, however, for the moment they're a tall,
loud, and very funny spoof of news sources and current BC politics. I
was actually about to send them my latest Internet idea but decided to
give you the first crack at it.

The idea came to me when I received a list of the proposed
cuts to pay for Gordon Campbell's tax cut for the hoity-toity. I say this
because if you earned less than 60 G's the bulk of your rebate evaporated
into "fees". So to pay for their newfound riches some things
have to go. Things like hospitals, honor and humanity. After the fourth
hospital closure threat and another broken contract, the idea came for
a website.

Featuring: The Gordon Campbell Death clock! The death
clock would count the number of people who had to die to buy the rich
nice things. So for everyone that will die from: hospital closures, drinking
and driving (counterattack cut), avalanche (advisory cut), road racing
(photo radar cut), and those who die because they couldn't get an ambulance
and can't afford a cab. Then of course there are the families with handicapped
children who commit mass suicide because they just can't keep up with
the cuts.

But just you wait, the clock will really start
movn' once they rewrite WCB. Hey, "Safety First" may save lives
but a couple dead trades people will buy some investor a really nice yacht.
The only rationalization I can think for all this mess is that the BC
Liberals have finally crossed the fuzzy line between political party and
ideological cult. I just wish they'd make us drink Kool-Aid like other
self-respecting cults. Now normally, I have no problem with cults; I only
have one rule: "don't hurt anyone". Unfortunately the Cult of
Gordo will have an incalculable death toll and that is something I simply
won't tolerate.
